Machinery:
   Oil fired boilers, steam turbines,
   Direct drive, 4 shafts, 6 drives, 59 593 shp / 44 456 Kw = 25,00 kts
   Range 8 000nm at 12,00 kts
   Bunker at max displacement = 3 153 tons

Me thinks you're over the limit for the 1909 engines....perhaps if you had the 1912 engine.

And if there are 2 mashine rooms. First contains 2 turbines 12000 each, and second - 4 turbines 12000 each on common shaft.

I think this method doesn't break the rules. 6 turbines 12000 each = 60000 hsp

The rule is 12000SHP - HP per Shaft, not per Turbines. And there are several turbines installed on a shaft, anyways. HP, LP, reverse, cruising.

I honestly have no idea if that's legal or not, but how the hell do you get SS to put 6 drives on 4 shaft, and how is the weight figured?

EDIT: Nevermind, P3D to the rescue. ;)

design edited.

Hm, main guns limited to end-on fire, 79% steadiness, extremely high seaboat rating - if you cut armor and displacement, you might be able to get 24kts on 48000SHP. I also suggest to have 1" inch increment in belt armor and 0.5" in deck.

Need some tweaking but still nice ships, they can eat most BCs/ACs for breakast.

What's the state of the art as far as Russian sub technology is concerned?  The new Nerpa type is impressive, but possibly too advanced for its build date...

Svetalana class:
- I have problems with macthing the SS file and the drawing (very pretty, BTW!).
You list 16 deck mounted 6" guns - but I see some in casemattes?
Nice, if rather big, fleet cruisers. But I know - everything's larger in Russia :)
Range is too short for independent work, IMO.

[olekit]

Range is enough to fight independently at those aquatories, which Russia has.
yes, there are 16 guns, 3 pairs of them in casemates. But those casemates is just rooms for shielded guns.

But thank you for comment, BTW  ;)

[Borys]

Nevertheless, I think you should list the guns as:
10x6", deck mounts, 2 (4?) raised, superfiring, on sides, evenly spread
6x6", in casemattes, 4 below weatherdeck, on sides, evenly spread


ADDED LATER:
- TDS on such a small ship is useless
- Belt is rather narrow

I think you started out well, but got sidetracked by the number of guns.
Either the Svetlana smothers the enemy with hail of fire, or it will die.
Either you have a nice stock of shells next to the gun mounts, potentially going BOOM! if hit, or your ROF will plummet after the gun-mount stocks are used up.

Question:

How have you arrived at the prices for your aviation units? Are you maybe just going by weight?

That reminds me that I have to do the Swiss planes, since a few countries use them.

There is no mountains in Finland.

Depends on what his definition of "Mountain" is. :D
